Ted Ginn Jr. has returned to his role as head coach of the UFL's Columbus Aviators, resuming duties on Tuesday following a weekend arrest for driving while intoxicated. The team released a video showing Ginn addressing his players after practice, marking his first day back after missing Sunday's loss to the Dallas Renegades.
In his absence, offensive coordinator Todd Haley stepped in to lead the team. Ginn addressed the incident publicly on social media, stating, "I made a serious mistake and take full responsibility for my actions. I've always believed in accountability and now it's my turn to live that standard."
The Aviators now prepare for a quick turnaround and a chance at redemption, hosting a rematch against the same Dallas Renegades this Friday in Columbus. The team has confirmed Ginn will be back on the sideline for the crucial conference matchup.
